I can buy a used set (75137) with Boba Fett figure without helmet. And small
marks on the torso (teeth?). I will buy a helmet

Do you think this is a good specimen for the collection in this condition?

FYI, the forum reduces images to a width of 640 pixels.

That means the minifig in your picture is around 170 pixels, that’s very low
resolution and we can’t see much details.

You could crop your image before uploading it or put it on a separate website
(imgur, flickr, dropbox…; but one that doesn’t sell LEGO).

I see two nicks on the torso and possibly one on the left arm; not valuable at
all in my opinion.

Are you happy with it? If you are then keep it in your collection. If you are
not happy with it, then replace the parts that you are not happy with.

Sadly you going to have to replace the Torso of that minifig.
There are 2 big "dents" in it.

You are right
I understand correctly that this is a worthy lot for the collection?

For what collection? If it is for your collection, keep it until you get a better
one. Then sell this one noting the damage.

For my personal collection no, and since your asking you probably feel the same
way. I would buy a new torso now before they get more expensive.

Yes. Torso will need to be replaced

This set sells for $13

Seems like an OK deal as long as everything else is there, given what this set
normally goes for (and the fact that you'll have to replace Boba's torso
and helmet)
